BASIC HAIR CARE INSTRUCTIONS The Volume Plus Air Styler is designed to quickly and easily style your hair with added volume and professional results. The Volume Plus Air Styler is not suitable for use on synthetic hair wigs or hair extensions. For optimal results, shampoo and condition your hair prior to styling, then towel dry and brush or comb to prevent tangling. *Note: Ensure hair is free of hair spray, mousse or gel. HOW TO CHANGE THE BRUSHES Your Hot Air Styler comes with a 19mm round brush and a 25mm soft bristle brush. To use, take either the round brush or the soft bristle brush and insert into the top of the handle unit until it clicks in to place. To remove, hold the brush at the neck near the handle and firmly pull. Ensure brushes are cool before removing. Both brushes can be removed from the handle for compact storage. HOW TO USE YOUR REMINGTON VOLUME PLUS AIR STYLER Ensure your hair is damp, but not soaking wet. Plug the styling brush into any household (230/240V AC) outlet, and select either setting 1 (low heat/speed) or setting 2 (high heat/speed) When drying/styling ensure that you do not cover the air inlet with your hand. The styling brush is sensational for quick touch-up styling, but your hair should be clean and free of hair spray, mousse or gel. The swivel cord ensures ease of use preventing the cord from getting tangled when twirling the unit around your hair. The curl release button ensures that you do not tangle your hair when styling it. Wrap your hair around the brush, and to remove your hair, simply press the curl release button so that the brush rotates freely. This enables easy removal of your hair from the brush without undoing the style that you have created. How to style your hair To curl your hair use the 19mm round brush or the soft round bristle brush. Separate a section of hair approximately 5-6 cm wide. Spread your hair evenly over the surface of the brush. The tightness of the curl is determined by how tightly you wrap your hair around the styling brush, and how long you hold the brush in place. The 19mm round brush will give you the tightest curls and the soft bristle brush will help to give a boost of volume to your hair. Use setting 2 for thicker hair and setting 1 for finer hair. To remove the hair 5
from the brush, simply press the curl release button and unroll the hair from the styling brush. To make a flick out, start at the end of the section of your hair. Hold the styling brush over your hair for a flick out or under your hair for a bob. To shape or wave your hair, place the brush just below the area you want shaped and push up. Remove the styling brush quickly and hold the wave in place with your hand until the hair has cooled. To give your hair extra volume, brush hair against the natural direction of growth using the soft bristle brush. Use slow, gentle strokes, until the desired volume is achieved. USER INSTRUCTIONS This appliance is equipped with a thermostat that will cycle OFF if the temperature exceeds the comfort level due to a partially blocked air inlet or air outlet opening. In the event that the appliance stops working during use, turn off the switches and allow the appliance to cool down so that the thermostat can automatically reset. Once cooled down to room temperature (approximately 10 to 15 minutes), switch on again and use. During use, do not block the air inlet grille.
